since this is such a busy time for many of us, we have decided to suspend the team challenge for the month of december. we'll be back in january, raring to go  but for anyone who *would* like some scrappy inspiration during december, we have also decided to just carry our november challenges over for another month. no points (unless you are like kiwigirl and i, who like to beat our own scores), no pressure to do anything, just continued fun if you feel like it. and stay tuned, because grammadee has something special in store for us! |

but for anyone who *would* like some scrappy inspiration during december, we have also decided to just carry our november challenges over for another month. Yay, there are so many challenges that I want to do from this month's list, and there was no way I was going to get through them all in the next 2 weeks. ETA: Can we at least still do Sketchy Saturdays? |

Thanks for the heads up, stinkerbelle . So no points gathering for December, but... Challenges are still open to take on for our own pleasure, just not for points toward team totals. Sketchy Saturdays will be hosted each week. Thinking the “regular” challenges will be posted. Am I right, Chinagirl828 and DawnMcD and KikiPea ? And of course all past challenges are tacked up HEREAlso, I will be setting a challenge a day for December 1st to 12th. Just a prompt, really, but if you would like to play along it may give you a bit of encouragement to complete pages in your albums and/or December Dailies &/or cards &/or other projects. Stay tuned for the Twelve Days of Christmas, 2Peas style. No prizes, no points, just some creative fun. |

I actually took Dec off last year. I’m happy to post something if people still want to play along but participation is usually non existent in Dec.

But I just started this month... Just kidding. With two December birthdays, Christmas, middle school basketball games, a trip to the in-laws, and kids being home half the month, I think it's a good idea to take December off. I'll be ready to go in January.

Yep! I’ll still post my challenge! I haven’t been able to scrap anything for myself lately as I have been working on Cmas gifts, and keep running out of ink. 🤪

I'm hoping December will be better for me. stinkerbelle , kiwigirl will you be using November's challenges for December because I'll play along with you - barring any continuing troubles that is... I feel a bit flat and need some pep to get me going Hey you! I was just thinking about you the other day and I kept meaning to message you and ask if you were ok. I missed you! We are just going to continue on with the Nov challenges through Dec, they're a good batch, I am liking them! So we'll probably start a thread just for us ones that want to compete against ourselves lol! Stinkerbelle and I will probably both be tallying our points and trying to beat our own scores or something. We have both been really useless this month so we're hoping next month will be better for creating! Love you to join us |

Oh thanks for missing me I've had a rough month - though not as rough as some, eh? I'm a bit brighter today so hopefully I'm over the worst. At least I can think in a straight line now |

Hello ladies,
I haven't played along with the challenges here in a really long time. Is there a thread dedicated to explaining how to join the challenges and how points are counted.
I really hope to get back to scrapbooking on a regular basis and challenges are a great way to keep me motivated.

I really hope to get back to scrapbooking on a regular basis and challenges are a great way to keep me motivated. So glad you want to play! There won't be any Team Challenges for December, but you are welcome to take on any of the November--or any past challenges--for your own motivation. The master list of challenges is HERELater in December, stinkerbelle will start a thread inviting you to sign up for the January teams. She will close it just before January 1st, when she will post the list of team members and the rules (including points collection). Here are the November Rules They usually stay the same from month to month. About the first of January, I will open a thread inviting you to post challenges. You will have to be quick. We collected 50 challenges in a day and a half in October and 80 challenges in 3 days in November. In general, completing one challenge is worth one point, but as the challenge writer you can offer bonus points for various tweaks/additions/combinations. For the last few months, MDscrapaholic has been compiling a printable list of the challenges once they are closed. Here is the November printable challenge list And keep an eye on the Challenges forum. stinkerbelle and kiwigirl have some plans to keep the November challenges going. And I will be posting small daily challenges the 1st to the 12th. |

Jacynthe I'm so glad you're back, I've missed seeing your pages! I hope you'll join the teams in Jan - I know it can look intimidating but really I just create pages and then look to see if I've met any of the challenges. It can be as full on or as low stress as you want.

Only problem for me is that if I participate I will not be able to stop singing "on the 4th day of Christmas gra-ma-dee -ee gave to us..." |
